3 months post-treatment and still clear of virus!!!!

Dear All,

Just wanted to share some good news to give hope adn courgae to those of you who are in treatmetn or considering it. My boyfriend was treated with Incivek (telaprevir) and we just got the news that he's still clear of virus (UNDetectable) after 3 months post treatment.
He was UND at 4 weeks so treated for 6 months, and we had a erally rough couple of months, but ut's worth it now.
He started treatment with Stage 3 liver damage.  We hope that a clean liver will help reverse some of the damage.
So hang in there!  Thanks for your support!

That's great news!   How does he feel now that it's gone, I mean physically.  I can imagine how it must feel mentally.  :)
